what i was trying to say is that most of the meets over a year you will find that very few schools can fill the 103 weight class. yes in the 5a and 6a where you have a lot more kids you may not have any open weights but thats the weight that seems to be the hardest to fill. Yes the boys you listed are great wrestlers but the number of kids at 103 are not there.
The kids in High School today are bigger and stronger than kids that wrestled 10 years ago and that does not mean ten years ago those boys were not good wrestler but times have chanced and so have the kids. Do you agree with that?
You do realize that I think you could make the same arguement of the numbers with the heavier weights despite saying kids are getting bigger. It seems to me that there are alot of schools that have trouble filling the top two weights just as readily as trying to fill 103. I also dont beleive that simply because the kids bigger that means they are better. I beleive alot of coaches will take a "body" simply to fill the top weight(s)which doesnt necessarily go hand in hand with your opinion of them being better. I believe that it would be suprising to know the % of upper weights that began their wrestling career very late simply b/c a coach was in serious need of an upperweight spot filled.
Just returned from a tournament this weekend. The 102 bracket was a 64 man bracket, 215 and 285 were 8 man. Yes, football is going on I'm aware of that. But I have honestly never once been to a tournament where my son has had less entries than the heavy weights.
Actually this is all away from the point of my objection originally and that is simply that you felt 103 was easy which I thought was a poor and innacurate comment.
